You have over 25,000 posts on a lacrosse website. You need to get a life. I stop in here occasionally to follow the Hopkins thread and talk politics. As a Jay fan it’s rough lately but I’m generally an optimist. Now if you want to talk golf, you’re a little closer to the truth.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Mon Nov 14, 2022 7:33 amYou sound like a loser.

See Kennedy in Illinois and Nixon in Texas in 1960. Do you think not knowing all of these races a week after election day promotes confidence in the system? Call me a conspiracy theorist if you will. Maybe the plan is to just have people say, "Well, my vote doesn't matter, so why bother?"ggait wrote: ↑Sun Nov 13, 2022 8:47 pmAnd yet France manages to handle over 40 million voters with no mail in or early voting, one election day on a Sunday and have the results almost immediately. Oh, and almost 100% paper ballots with very few machines, hand counted. I guess they value an honest election way more than who wins.
X -- You were trolling/advocating in person only voting. Like they do in France. So I fact checked your troll BS. Deal with it.
My point was that in GA, folks (mostly) black have to stand in line for up to 10 hours in order to vote in person. Which is flat out racist and unacceptable in a democracy.
Thankfully, they do have early voting and mail voting in Georgia. Which you oppose for no logical reason at all, except maybe that you'd rather not have those other people voting. How about we let people vote the way they want to vote. Why should we all have to do it the way you say. Fork off.
You trolled up the subject of in person voting, not me.
Cheers.
Of course there is fraud, and in some close races it could tip the scales. My biggest takeaway from this is Mitch was almost as anti-Populist as any Democrat. He didn’t support populist candidates in NH, AK, AZ. Populism is the enemy of the establishment. Also, Dems are street fighters while Reps are less likely to resort to ballot harvesting and primary crossover to elect poor Republicans. Laxalt is an example.
If not, why not?
"Laxalt is an example" of what?
An election denier? An abortion extremist?
You think his problem was Mitch?
Or that voters in a purple/blue state didn't like his extremism?
Is this what's getting peddled now in right wing media?
"populist" now as a compliment?
An "anti-establishment" term to divert from the term I'd use "extremism"?
And note the "Dems are "street fighters"...are we calling on "populists" to be "street fighters"?..."my people have the guns" language from Der Leader?
